Welcome to AZHJ: Bridging Urbanism, Design, and Research for Spatial Justice
AZHJ is a leading research boutique dedicated to urbanism, spatial justice, and sustainable development.
We operate at the intersection of research, policy, and practice to address urban inequalities, foster inclusive cities, and support sustainable transformations in the built environment. Through collaborative and evidence-based approaches, we work to create equitable, resilient, and thriving spaces for communities worldwide.
Our Vision: Create Authentic Spaces & Empower Cities to Reduce Inequalities through Research & Design
At AZHJ, we bring together thinkers, activists, artists, and researchers, each contributing unique expertise to catalyse urban change.
We design comprehensive strategies and policy products that redefine urban living by weaving together planning, sociology, design, visual arts, and a deep commitment to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our interdisciplinary practice allows us to craft solutions that speak to the core of the challenges cities face, transforming insight into action and research into tangible impact.
Our Mission: We develop knowledge and capacity for creating equitable, sustainable, and inclusive urban environments.
Collaboration is at the heart of what we do.
We partner with national and local governments, international organisations, and institutions that share our vision for equitable urban transformation.
We pursue interdisciplinary research and evidence-based practices that transcend boundaries—crafting solutions designed to create lasting impact for communities and cities alike.
